we didn't cut medicare. of course we didn't have medicare. but we didn't cut medicare by $716 billion. we didn't put in place a board that can tell people ultimately what treatments they're going to receive. we didn't also do something that i think a number of people across this country recognize, which is put people in a position where they're going to lose the insurance they had and they wanted. right now the cbo says up to 20 million people will lose their insurance as obama care goes into effect next year. and likewise, a study by mckinsey and company of american businesses said 30% of them are anticipating dropping people from coverage. so for those reasons, for the tax, for medicare, for this board, and for people losing their insurance, this why the american people don't want medicare -- don't want obama care. it's why republicans said do not do this. and the republicans had a plan. they put a plan out. they put a plan, a bipartisan plan. it was swept aside. i think something this big, this important has to be done on a bipartisan basi

i can't understand how you can cut medicare 716 $billion for current resip yefrnts of medicare. you point out, we're putting some back, better prescription program. that's $1 for every $15 you've cut. they are smart enough to know that's not a good trade. i want to take that $716 million you've cut, put it back into medicare. by the way, we can include a prescription program, if we need to improve it. but the idea of cutting $716 billion from medicare to be able to balance the additional cost of obama care is in my opinion a mistake. with regard to young people coming along, i have proposals to make sure medicare and social security are there for them without any question. >> mr. president. >> first of all, i think it's important for governor romney to present this plan that he says will only affect folks in the future. and the essence of the plan as you would turn medicare into a voucher program. it's called premium support, and it's a voucher program. his running mate. >> and you don't support that? >> i don't. and let me explain why. >> and again that's for future not current
